Guest Post: My Girlfriend on Leaving Sweden for Love

I am not moving to Dre in the hopes of getting taken care of the rest of my life by a wealthy man. Reading his blog, you all know that he is far from living such a life or ever wanting such a thing, yet I´m still here after all these months. I can also tell you when adding up the cost for all of this it will not be a cheap adventure for me. I’ve not asked for any help from Dre with this and I would never accept any either!

Neither am I doing this in the hopes of getting pregnant, married and getting into the US that way. First of all, I don´t think I ever want children and when it comes to marriage, well, that’s something I might want in the future but not now. (Also the Visa I have doesn’t allow any such thing – so don’t you worry guys, no running off to Vegas for us haha)

So why am I doing this? I´m not getting anything out of it per say and for all I know Dre might be an axe murderer (Editor’s Note: Little does she know… muahahaha). After all, I am a single woman traveling to a man in the US. What can I do, sic my little lapdog on him? Ha!

I´m simply doing this out of love – because of the strong connection I feel with him.

I’ve always had a strong opinion of who my family is; it’s the people who raised me, not the people who biologically created me. What I never felt though is a strong attachment to Sweden as a county to live in (but damn if any other county beats us in any sports haha). What I´m getting at is no matter where in the world, Dre is MY home. He has always given me that feeling, a sense of finding home, and that’s why I´m not nervous at all about traveling there or about how things will turn out between us when I am there.
